The Body Vanishes? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Just a random thought - what would happen if someone died while wearing the One Ring? Bilbo could have been accidentally killed with a sword or a rock in the Battle of the Five Armies, after all, and even if the Ring had stayed on Isildur's hand while he was fleeing, the Orcs might have seen the shape of his body disturbing the water. So would the body stay invisible, and the Ring invisible along with? Or did the effect disappear when life did?
